Daveo 61 Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Has anyone read this article about a bedlington cross? It must be a wind up, perhaps ment for the April edition? Quote Link to post
sh 08 17 Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 yes i read it how do you mean mate Quote Link to post
Daveo 61 Posted February 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) The picture looks like a ped whippet not a first cross beddy/whippet (and its a dog) He says she work work above or below ground, lamped rabbits and caught hares. He recons he dug to her 30 or 40 times, Im not calling the bloke a liar but its hard to believe a 15" bitch could do all that. Edited February 22, 2010 by Daveo Quote Link to post
